I am not sure how old this is, I am seeing comments from 4-5 years ago, but now they have light bulbs in craft stores, plastic and glass. the ends are like lids. will be easier than taking ends off real light bulbs

Nice one. I'm building one as a present. I also had some issues with taking apart the lightbulb. Apparently they are a built for eternity around here. After removing the metal parts I got a fully enclosed odd shaped glass blob. I managed to cut off the end with the string and nailpolish method. Worked like charm. http://www.wonderhowto.com/how-to-cut-beer-bottle-half-without-knife-162830/

Sure! I hollowed out the lightbulb like they did in here, and to make the lightbulb inside, I used silver and yellow polymer clay, which when you bake becomes waterproof. For the base, we had some other snowglobe bases and rubber stoppers lying around from fixing someone elses snow globe so i used those and I attached the clay lightbulb up there by putting it on top of a screw. Any questions?
